/**
|
|
* \brief Securely zeroize a buffer
|
|
*
|
|
* The function is meant to wipe the data contained in a buffer so
|
|
* that it can no longer be recovered even if the program memory
|
|
* is later compromised. Call this function on sensitive data
|
|
* stored on the stack before returning from a function, and on
|
|
* sensitive data stored on the heap before freeing the heap
|
|
* object.
|
|
*
|
|
* It is extremely difficult to guarantee that calls to
|
|
* mbedtls_platform_zeroize() are not removed by aggressive
|
|
* compiler optimizations in a portable way. For this reason, Mbed
|
|
* TLS provides the configuration option
|
|
* MBEDTLS_PLATFORM_ZEROIZE_ALT, which allows users to configure
|
|
* mbedtls_platform_zeroize() to use a suitable implementation for
|
|
* their platform and needs
|
|
*
|
|
* \param buf Buffer to be zeroized
|
|
* \param len Length of the buffer in bytes
|
|
